Please join ACC Colorado and Spencer Fane for an evening at Eddie V’s Restaurant in Greenwood Village. This presentation features two simple guys building on their decades of real-world experience about:

  • complex cyber, legal, compliance, and regulatory issues in a practical way that normal people can understand
  • how to apply this knowledge to your companies to be better prepared for and resilient to overall business cyber risk
  • the lifecycle of a cyber-attack (such as ransomware attack) and address key phases such as: what they are, how they happen, what the process is for recovery and investigation
  • how to prepare for and hopefully prevent attacks from happening

The speakers will address many legal, compliance, and regulatory issues that arise from such attacks and explain how the consequences of these issues can impact the company for many years. They will then demonstrate how this understanding should inform and guide how companies develop and mature their cyber risk management program with a foundation that focuses on the end goal of what must be done when the unthinkable happens so that, if it does, they are prepared and able to meet their obligations.
